We are thrilled to be collaborating with @ViSTEM_Africa
on an upcoming networking event for #AfricansinSTEM titled, "Setting the Tone for the Academic Year". It will take place at 18 Sept 2021 at 5 PM BST. We hope to see you there! Register at https://t.co/RpKjlZmSYn

Here's a plan by @royalsociety boost black scientists in research. Fellowships to embed five scientists a year in the best universities may seem a small start, but it's hoped it will make a big difference to the lack of diversity in the UK research. https://t.co/KjLYI5jqUl

@BlackinCancer @Windsor_Fellows @CRUKCamCentre @CRUKCOLcentre Black researchers are underrepresented within academia and we launched the #BlackLeaderinCancer programme last year to help change that. Hear from @siggs28, @kevin_Coutinho and our own @SilPanico on why programmes like this are so important 👉 https://t.co/VnD7CUQFVH
